College Basketball Pick Of The Day – UConn @ Louisville – Who Covers The Spread
Now that football is officially over, the pros at FiveStarPick.com will be focusing their attention solely on college and pro hoops. Tonight we all get the benefit of watching two serious National Championship contenders when the UConn Huskies go on the road to play the Louisville Cardinals.
Most Las Vegas sportsbooks list Louisville (17-3 straight up, 12-8 against the spread) as 3-point home favorites with the total hovering around 138. Louisville has won 9 in a row going 7-2 against the spread in as many games. The Cardinals are coming off Saturday’s home win over West Virginia as 6.5-point home favorites, 69-63. Jerry Smith scored 20 points for Louisville, but 26 turnovers proved too difficult to overcome as the Cards missed covering by a 1/2 point.
UConn (20-1 SU, 9-7 ATS) is also on a 9-game winning streak. The Huskies are 6-3 ATS over the nine-game stretch including an ATS win over Providence, 94-61 as 13-point home favorites. Hasheem Thabeet messed around and got a triple-double with 15 points, 11 rebounds and 10 blocked shots. A.J. Price had 19 points and Stanley Robinson addded 18.
Rick Pitino’s team has gone 8-5 ATS in their last 13 home games, but since 2000, UConn has won four of six head-to-head meetings against Louisville. However, the Cards are 3-0-1 ATS in the last four encounters.
